Maryland Driving Records Request Information
Your driving record is an important document because it encompasses your driving history. The Maryland Motor Vehicle Administration (MVA) maintains the driving records of all Maryland residents with a driver’s license. The driving history revealed by your driving record includes:
- Your car insurance information
- Your personal details
- Driver’s license status
- Accidents
- Violations
- Vehicle’s information such as title number, VIN number, and odometer reading
- DUI records
With the help of your driving record, you can:
- Check for possible identity theft
- Verify that all information you provided is correct
- Track your violations
There are two types of driving records that you can obtain from the Maryland Motor Vehicle Administration (MVA). The two types of driving records include:
- 3-year driving record
- Probation before judgment (PBR) driving record
The 3-year driving record contains traffic violation convictions, car accidents, any driver’s license suspensions or revocations, driver’s license status and issue date. On the other hand, the probation before judgment (PBR) driving record encompasses everything that is part of the 3-year driving record in addition to any probation before judgments such as DUI charges.

My friend was assaulted during a minor traffic altercation in a parking lot. No one called the police as she was screaming for them to but she did manage to get the tag number. She does not go online or use a computer, I am trying to help her. How do we find the name of the person to whom these tags were issued? She did go to the police but they said without a name they can’t help her.
Thank you for reaching out about our Maryland driving record blog. Unfortunately this is a police matter and they should definitely help your friend that was assaulted. You should definitely have your friend fill out a police report, especially if she was injured. If you didn’t get the response you wanted from the first police department you should consider reaching out to another Maryland police department or perhaps a sheriff department.
Can you please tell me what the difference is between a certified vs a non-certified driver’s record?
A certified Maryland driving record refers to a copy of your Maryland driver’s abstract that has been endorsed by the state. This is an official record. These certified, or official copies of your Maryland driving record can be used for employment, rental agreements, academic applications, security clearances and more. An uncertified driving record is for reference only, meaning if you want to check your Maryland driver record you can do this but it’s for your own edification and cannot be used for any of the reasons mentioned above.
Meant to add is the words Official Record and Certified Record one in the same?
